An autopsy of Michel Cordes' body will be carried out this week to confirm that he has committed suicide. The actor, aged 77, had just separated from his girlfriend and felt deeply alone.
He left behind three letters: one for his family, one for the tax authorities and one for a gendarmerie. The actors of Plus belle la vie (Fabienne Carat, Anne Decis, Laëtitia Milot...) should undoubtedly be present at his funeral.
